DIVINE ORIGIN OF HUMAN FAMILY
God create first humans, Adam and Eve, and brought them together as husband wife. He put them in a beautiful earthly paradise home–the garden of Eden-and told them to have children. "Be beautiful and become many and fill the earth," said God. (Genesis 1:26-28; 2:18, 21-24) This is not just a story or a myth, for Jesus showed that what Genesis says about the start of family life is true. (Mathew 19:4, 5) Although we face many problem and life now is not as God purposed it to be, let us see why happiness within the family is possible.
Each member of a family can help to make a family life happy by imitating God in showing love. (Ephesians 5:1, 2) How, though, can we imitate God, since we cannot even see him? We can learn how God act because he sent is firstborn son from heaven to earth. (john 1:14, 18) When on earth, this son, Jesus Christ, imitated his heavenly father so well that seeing and listening to Jesus was just like being with God and hearing Him. (john 14:9) Therefore, by learning about the love Jesus showed and following is example, each one of us can help make a family life happier.
